THE Minister of Defence, Alhaji Mansur Dan-Ali has said that government was taking measures to ensure safety of lives and property in the country.
Dan-Ali disclosed this to News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Minna during the wedding ceremony of the daughter of former president Ibrahim Babangida, Halima.
“Nigeria is secure because the Federal Government is doing everything possible to secure lives and property in the country.
“We are winning the war against insecurity because government is working with all Nigerians,’’ he said.
The minister said that the kind of people who attended the marriage were an indication that the country was secured.
“When you look at the people gathered here today, Nigerians and non-Nigerians that travelled from outside and within the country to rejoice with the family you will conclude that there is peace.
“If the country is not secured you will not see this kind of people from all works of lives here,’’ he said.
On the issue of insurgency in the North East, he said “we are doing our best to eliminate insurgency in the North East.
“So far so good we are tackling all security issues in the country and not only insurgency in the North East.’’
